Water Street TIF District

A Tax Increment Financing (TIF) Feasibility Study for the Water Street Area was conducted in 2002 which showed the area was qualified for eligible expenditures, including public improvements that could be funded under the TIF Act. A Water Street Vision Statement (PDF) was drafted and a Joint Review Board was established to create the proposed Water Street Tax Increment (TIF) District.

The Water Street TIF District was approved in 2007. The ordinances creating the district are listed below:

Joint Review Board

The Illinois State Statute requires each TIF District to conduct a meeting of the Joint Review Board (JRB) to review and approve each annual fiscal year report submitted. Due to a change in the city’s fiscal year to a calendar year cycle, the next meeting of the JRB will be held in 2017 to review the FY16 reporting information (covering the period from May 1, 2015 – December 31, 2016). Copies of meeting summaries from the last two years are provided below.

Due to a change in the City of Naperville's fiscal year cycle to coincide with the calendar year, the next meeting of the Joint Review Board will be in 2017.
